Slipstream

[3.1.0] - 2026-03-06

Changed

• Enforced strict fallback parsing: Fallback wires now require a 1-16 char ref token
• Enforced closed Force vocabulary for UCR extensions
• Locked core UCR anchor mutation after base UCR construction/load
• Development status upgraded from Alpha to Beta
• Publish workflow now runs full test suite instead of inline v2 smoke test
• Updated package metadata and docs for Python-first adoption flow
• Release checklist updated for v3 API

Added

• Explicit legacy migration helper: parse_slip_legacy() for permissive fallback wire migration
• Governance package: CONTRIBUTING.md, CODE_OF_CONDUCT.md, SECURITY.md, GOVERNANCE.md, MAINTAINERS.md, CODEOWNERS, and PR/issue templates
• Paper/spec/code release parity artifact: docs/claim-map.md
• Canonical tracked paper source for parity: docs/paper/slipstream-v3.1.md
• New adoption docs: docs/start-here.md and docs/migration-v3-1.md
• LangGraph transport adapter (slipcore.langgraph) with encode/decode node and router helpers
• LangGraph adoption guide and runnable integration example
• Release checklist gate script now validates sections 1/2/3/4/5/7 and can enforce full completion on release events
• Unit tests for finetune.py template generator
• Unit tests for errors.py exception hierarchy
• This changelog

Removed

• slipcore_tools stub package (will return when CLI is built out)
• tools optional dependency group

Fixed

• README quickstart used invalid KeywordQuantizer.quantize(..., src=..., dst=...) usage
• publish.yml used dead v2 API (slip/decode) - replaced with pytest
• finetune.py fallback examples used placeholder refXXXX - now generates realistic ref tokens
• Model/dataset metadata and links now consistently target the anthonym21 Hugging Face namespace
